Hadda Be Announce Another Life

Leave a comment

If you’re looking for a little bit of dreamy pop combined with sprinkles of 90s rock, then boy have I got the band for you today: Hadda Be! They’re the newest act on powerhouse label Last Night from Glasgow, and I can’t get over this jam. It’s got just a hint of swagger that nods at punk, but these arena rock feels that make it sound huge; you feel like you’re surrounded by hoards of fans clamoring to hear those huge riffs billow through the speaker stacks. Some rock just feels timeless, feels like it could bridge any genre, any emotion; this tune is one such track, and thus should be the highlight of your listening experience today. Look for Another Life to drop on April 30th.

Wurld Series Share Supplication

Leave a comment

Having already hyped up Wurld Series and their forthcoming What’s Growing LP, I was eager to hear what their second single was all about. We got some big fuzz on that first one, but now, they’ve completely flipped us on our heads, turning instead for the perfect pop nugget a la Tony Molina. It’s 1:43 seconds of delightful pop balladry, featuring this wonderful vocal melody and heavy strumming riding atop a synthesized organ line; something about it reminds me of Jeff Mangum in the best way, of course. I love a little pop treat, and perhaps there’s none better than something that’s so quickly consumed in order to press repeat and have it play through your speakers the rest of the day! Look for What’s Growing on March 16th via Meritorio Records.

Slomo Annoucne L-Dopa

Leave a comment

This new track from Melbourne’s Slomo just made it across the pond, and I’ve really been enjoying it this morning. You could possibly file the track under the shoegaze/dream pop realm, twisting with little elements of post punk, but its all about the execution that really made it stand out to me. The front half of the song is built around Jem King’s angelic vocals, guitars sort of skittering about behind her; you can feel the tension building, but it never entirely reaches that pinnacle…or so it seems. They delay that release, teasing with a short glimpse before returning back to the cavernous realm where Jem’s voice is at play. But, just as you cross that 3 minute threshold, the song erupts forcefully, echoing through your speakers as the track fades fades fades away. Look for their new album L-Dopa is out February 19th.

Maria DeHart Shares Obsessions

Leave a comment

Feel like its best to start out a Monday with a powerfully moving tune, like the latest from Maria DeHart. She’s got this voice that will obviously remind folks of Hope Sandoval, and the musical style isn’t too far off either…though its definitely distinctly of her own making. I love how the heavy synth wash of the atmosphere works in direct contrast to the soft strum of the guitar; it all gets even better when you cross that three minute mark and more texture comes into play here. Enjoy this track off the Quarantunes EP, and admit to yourself its okay to get lost on this Monday!

Forgot About This Mo Troper Tune

Leave a comment

I think I can finally clean out all my old emails from 2020 by sharing this Mo Troper tune, which honestly, I would have shared on its release at the end of December had we not been shut down for sanity’s sake. Mo’s got this great power pop feel of late; I love how he stretches his vocals to the tip top of his range, letting it ride on top of the mix as the guitars churn just beneath him. The song just feels like that shimmering sun warming you through your living room window as you gaze into the future; I feel like I could really use that right now. Check his last LP, Natural Beauty too, if you haven’t done so already!

Mint Eastwood Shares Man from Atlantis

Leave a comment

Weird how listening to a new artists on your radar immediately takes you back in time, like when I first listened to this Mint Eastwood tune, I couldn’t help but think of Jason Lytle and Grandaddy. There’s that soft electronic fuzz that wraps itself around the vocals, squeezing out every drop of pop sensibility. I’ve really enjoyed how the song sits back a bit, showing some restraint too, so it doesn’t go over the top and smack the listener in the face with its pop bravado. Seems like the perfect tune to turn on in the background while you watch the waves of 2021 roll into your life…or you know, if you just want to listen to a really good song.

The BVs Share I Hope There’s No Snow

Leave a comment

It looks like the BVs latest single might have been wishful thinking, as I’ve seen several friends who have had to combat the snow this past weekend. Nonetheless, the song is a nice little driving pop ditty, steadied by a propulsive rhythm section. The guitars ring out, though they clearly seem to be dancing around the song’s core, sort of fluttering through the speakers like snowflakes falling to the ground. For me, the song gets the seal of approval with these deep vocal tones, occasionally accented by an unknown supporting vocal. It’s a seasonal ditty, sure, but hopefully it hints at the sounds to come as we await the follow-up to Cartography.

Henrik Appel Shares Mrs. Spaceman

Leave a comment

I don’t know what it is about Henrik Appel that makes me swoon, but there’s something in his songwriting that just hits that emotional note I can’t pull away from. This song’s mostly all about his vocals and the strum of his guitar; it almost has this odd Bolan-esque quality to it. You ever just love a song and you can’t put it into words why or how, you just want to play it all day long? That’s been my experience with this new track from Henrik; you’ll find it on his new LP, Humanity, out January 8th via PNKSLM.

Lacto-Ovo Share Nu West

Leave a comment

While Lacto-Ovo largely been quiet for the better part of two decades, but with the recent digital reissuing of Shoes & You and Tsunami Pop, the band have rekindled the flame, so to speak. In doing so, they unearthed a lost CD from a recording session meant for their third album…and today, we’re excited to give you a first listen. It’s an oddball art-pop dance party, one you might associate with your favorite Devo impersonators. One thing I love, aside from the sheer infectiousness of those hook-laden beats is that the band blend this sort of class pop chorus into it; it gives the song this warmth that sort of offsets the electronic pulse of the tune leaving you with this endearing charm you’ll want to put in your pocket to take with you! The songs being supported by our dear friends at Lost and Lonesome, hinting that the final LO chapter may yet to have been written.

Bumping New Track From The Ninth Wave

Leave a comment

Glasgow based outfit The Ninth Wave truly came onto my musical radar during SXSW in 2019 when I interviewed them as part of our festival guide. Since that time, the band dropped their critically acclaimed debut album Infancy and released an EP entitled Happy Days! earlier this year. Staying ever busy, the band just released this banging new single today called “Everything Will be Fine”. If you were looking for a little Friday morning motivation, look no further, as this tune is full of fun energy, hope, and an overall danceable vibe. Hit play on this one and get your dance party started early.
